As the plot and the depth of thinking about memory,
the dark and cold tones at the beginning are also remarkable.
Unfortunately,
I have never understood that the awesome aliens can change objects at will and be crushed to death by walls. . . Play around with a flying knife. . . Really engage. . . Could even be shot dead. . . Can you change objects by will? . . The depiction of the headquarters is extremely rough. . . Huge metal avatar. . . The duel with the final boss is really like a character in Zhou Xingxing's funny movie. . . Detective falls into outer space. . . It felt as if he was swimming. . . gosh. .

But I did it in 1998, it doesn't matter if you forgive me

    A great script is still a philosophical cookie with untrustworthy memories and doubts about life. The idea of ​​science fiction is to create an original set of world rules and then instill them into the minds of the audience. This is so beautifully done. But it doesn't feel as smooth as Sin City. The end of the duel with the boss is like Harry vs. Voldemort, the thunder has arrived.

    Particularly clumsy. It's like a student sitting in the back row of the classroom trying to read the words on the blackboard clearly, and in the end they still do not perform well, but you can only give him encouragement points. It's not that it dislikes its rough technology, "Metropolis" was still seventy years ago, but its greatness will always stand the test of time.

    Emma Murdoch: But how can that be true? I so vividly remember meeting you. I remember falling in love with you. I remember losing you.

    Emma Murdoch: I love you John, you can't fake something like that.
